Is it just an optical illusion or are the cars actually shorter this year?

[Jamie]

You know what i was thinking that when looking at the Toyota... They are very strange indeed.... Bud? Help Please

The strict regulations mean that the teams inevitably end up with very similarly sized cars. As a typical example, the 2007 season Toyota TF107 is 453cm long, 180cm wide and 95cm high.

Hope that helps you, i can't find dimensions for this year's cars though - but i reckon they'd be the same, the huge rear wings just make the cars look shorter.

They look more clumbsy, and less sleek than last years.

Last year's cars have so many bits and pieces glued on that look like they came from a Blue Peter "make something out of an empty bottle of Washing Up Liquid" feature.
